Phase 1 of the Lakeshore Trail connecting downtown Benton Harbor and St. Joseph in Berrien County, Michigan, is now open. This 2.5-mile section of the Lakeshore Trail is a paved, multi-use walking and biking trail from the Harbor Shores Trails on Higman Park Road in Benton Charter Township, along M-63, to the Monte Road trailhead of the Lakeview Mountain Bike Trail. It is ADA-compliant with grades below 5% to allow many abilities and skill levels to utilize the trail.
Nature restoration, including the planting of new trees, will be completed before the anticipated official opening of the trail in spring 2026.
The Lakeshore Trail is the first phase of a larger effort to ultimately connect the trail system in St. Joseph and Benton Harbor to the Van Buren State Park Trail in Covert Township, Van Buren County.
Although the trail is open, it is not plowed or groomed.
